DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the present application more clear, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative efforts fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0028] As Figures 1-7 The present embodiment provides an ultrasonic probe connector, which comprises a shell 1, a plug assembly 2, a shielding assembly, a cable assembly 5 and a collar structure 6.

[0029] The shell 1 at least includes an upper shell 11 and a lower shell 12, which are buckled to each other to form a cavity with an opening and a cable passing hole. The upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12 can be connected by a connecting member in the form of a buckle and a protrusion. The plug assembly 2 is arranged in the shell 1 and includes a plug part 21 and a circuit board 22 electrically connected to each other. A part of the plug part 21 is exposed outside the shell 1 from the opening. The shielding assembly is arranged between the shell 1 and the plug assembly 2 and corresponds to the shell 1 and the plug assembly 2. In this embodiment, the shielding assembly is arranged outside the circuit board 22, and can also extend to the plug part 21.

[0030] Preferably, the shell 1 is made of non-metal material, and can be made of plastic material or other material. The shielding assembly is made of metal material and can be arranged in the form of a plate or a mesh cover.

[0031] The sleeve structure 6 arranged outside the cable assembly 5 limits the upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12, respectively. The sleeve structure 6 serves as a reinforcing structure, which can not only limit and reinforce the shell 1 to avoid gaps, cracks or warping, but also can avoid increasing the structure volume at the position where the cable assembly 5 passes through the shell 1, thereby improving the user experience.

[0032] The cable assembly 5 includes a cable main body 51, a magnetic ring 52, a wire binding buckle 53 and a tail end assembly.

[0033] One end of the cable main body 51 passes into the shell 1 and is connected to the plug assembly 2 through the shielding assembly. The other end extends to the outside of the shell 1 and is connected to the external structure. The magnetic ring 52 is sleeved on the cable main body 51 and arranged in the shielding assembly. The wire binding buckle 53 is sleeved on the cable main body 51 and partially extends to the outside of the shell 1. The first shaft 531 is arranged in the shell 1 and abuts against the inner wall of the shell 1. It can be understood that when the wire binding buckle 53 is limited and connected to the shell 1 at the end facing the magnetic ring 52, it can completely extend out of the shell 1. The tail end assembly is arranged on the side of the wire binding buckle 53 away from the magnetic ring 52, sleeved on the cable main body 51 and fixedly connected to the cable main body 51. The tail end assembly is limited and connected to the wire binding buckle 53.

[0034] In this embodiment, the sleeve structure 6 is sleeved on the outside of the shell 1 between the first shaft 531 and the tail end assembly. The outer periphery of the end of the shell 1 into which the cable main body 51 passes is provided with a receiving groove 14 corresponding to the sleeve structure 6. The sleeve structure 6 abuts against the tail end assembly.

[0035] In this way, the collar structure 6 is limited by the accommodating groove 14 and the tail end assembly on both sides in the extending direction of the cable body 51, thereby avoiding slipping off, and the accommodating groove 14 is arranged on the shell 1, thereby further reducing the structural volume of the shell 1 at this position and improving the user experience.

[0036] Preferably, the outer walls of the shell 1, the collar structure 6, and the tail end assembly are smoothly connected.

[0037] The tail end assembly includes a net tail piece 55 and a limiting piece 54. The net tail piece 55 is fixedly connected to the cable body 51 and the limiting piece 54, and the connection mode can be injection molding or adhesion. The limiting piece 54 is arranged on the side of the net tail piece 55 facing the cable tie 53, and the cable tie 53 is correspondingly provided with a limiting matching part 532, and the two are detachably limited and connected. Specifically, the limiting piece 54 and the limiting matching part 532 are connected through threads, the limiting piece 54 is a metal nut in this embodiment, preferably a copper nut, and the limiting matching part 532 is an external thread, and the two can also be connected through clamping.

[0038] The shell 1 further includes a top shell 13, which is limited and connected to one of the upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12 or both, and is arranged on the side away from the plug part 21. In this embodiment, the connection is realized through a sunken screw and a hot melt nut.

[0039] The upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12 are correspondingly provided with an inner groove 15 on the side away from the plug part 21, which is suitable for accommodating the top shell 13. The outer wall of the top shell 13 is smoothly connected to the outer walls of the upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12. In this way, the user is prevented from being scratched by a protrusion, thereby improving the user experience.

[0040] The shielding assembly includes an upper shielding cover 3 and a lower shielding cover 4, which are correspondingly buckled and arranged outside the circuit board 22. The upper shell 11 is detachably limited and connected to the upper shielding cover 3 through a connecting piece, and the lower shell 12 is detachably limited and connected to the lower shielding cover 4 through a connecting piece. The connecting piece can be a sunken screw structure. It can be understood that only one of the two structures can be detachably limited and connected through a connecting piece.

[0041] In this embodiment, the upper and lower shielding covers 4 are provided with a plurality of protrusions at the front ends, which can connect the plug assembly 2 and the cable shielding wire. The protrusions are arranged on the shielding cover. When the connector is inserted into the host socket, the protrusions serve to connect the host and the plug assembly 2. The plug assembly 2 and the shell are in contact and conductive, and the cable assembly 5 and the shell are in contact and conductive through the cable tie 53. In this way, the entire system is grounded, and the shielding effect is relatively good.

[0042] In addition, the shell 1 further comprises a force applying groove 16, which is correspondingly arranged on the outer surfaces of the upper shell 11, the lower shell 12 and the top shell 13, and can be arranged on only one or two of them. The arrangement of the force applying groove 16 can not only facilitate the user to apply force, but also can increase the friction effect, further, the groove bottom of the force applying groove 16 can be arranged with a material with relatively large friction, such as rubber, or arranged with a plurality of wave-shaped or protruding structures.

[0043] Although the embodiments of the present application are described in conjunction with the drawings, various modifications and changes can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application, and such modifications and changes fall within the scope defined by the appended claims.
